Zack Polanski talking nonsense. Labour has delivered the biggest upgrade to workers’ rights in a generation through the Employment Rights Act, strengthening protections, improving pay & backing working people. That’s not “turning our backs” on the working class that’s delivery
Zack Polanski@ZackPolanski

Labour voters are now those who are financially best off. This is because Labour have turned their backs on the working class to placate the wealthy. The unions have noticed and are liking what they see in a Green Party committed to workers right and affordability.

The grooming gangs’ scandal is one of the darkest moments in our country’s history. The independent national Inquiry will now begin its crucial work to uncover how these crimes were allowed to happen and root out failure wherever it occurred. There will be no hiding place for the predatory monsters who committed these vile crimes.

This is Apartheid. It's morally disgusting - and comes at the same time as Israel is committing an ongoing genocide. To see the Labour Government defend Israel repeatedly will horrify the British public - it cannot go on like this.
Current Report@Currentreport1

BREAKING: Israel's parliament has officially passed a law imposing the death penalty by hanging for Palestinian detainees. At least 10,000 Palestinian prisoners could be at risk of execution.

@wireinthebrain The long term effect of the Chancellor NOT supporting small businesses is far worse. More youth unemployment, tourism areas like mine in longer-term decline, etc etc.

@ShabanaMahmood The grooming gangs were a completely imported problem. There is a simple solution Shabana: deport the Pakistani rapists, deport their family members who failed to report them, and stop allowing in migrants from Third World countries to the UK.

@ZackPolanski Disappointingly I voted Labour, but there was very little choice, Tories were corrupt, Reform had bad candidates, I don't even remember Lib Dem, Labour had @zarahsultana and she spoke sence. Labour have really let me down. And my Lab MP is shocking.

🟢 EXC: Zack Polanski will target trade unions with appearances at conferences as part of a Green Party strategy to win over core Labour groups disillusioned with Sir Keir Starmer’s leadership The Green leader has spoken to ten unions, including some officially affiliated with Labour, across health, education and culture sectors He is set to make five keynote speeches at union conferences in an attempt to win over members One Green source said Polanski’s goal was to stop the unions funding Labour, rather than getting them to back the Greens outright Polanski told @thetimes that a “crucial part” of replacing Labour as Britain’s main left-wing option for voters was to “connect with the organised labour movement” thetimes.com/article/4c6085…

@ZackPolanski If you can make real promises to support workers in their rights, pay, terms and conditions then you’ll get union folk over to the Greens relatively quickly. Labour have betrayed workers and their roots. The question is: how truly left-wing are the Greens?

FT case for keeping Starmer, unheroic but sane. “ it’s never true that things cannot get worse.”

@michaelwhite I don't think Starmer should fight the next election But the government have to do a lot of unpopular things to fix the mess of the last 15 years, including Brexit Better to let him take the hit, and bring someone else in nearer the GE

Viviane posts these updates regularly. If you're not already following her, might be worth considering? Then repost - astonishing how many ppl challenge me to 'tell me one thing Labour's achieved since it came to power'.
Viviane: 🌹Labour led by Keir for me@LaindonFEMINIST

We cannot rely on our media to tell us what Labour are doing. Here’s 11 positive announcements from the last 5 days that are unreported. It’s our job to make these known far and wide. #DoingTheMediasJob #LabourAchievements #FixingBritain

How do you feel about VAR, and would you like to keep it out of The Championship? 🤔 #efl #skybetchampionship
Henry Winter@henrywinter

Premier League fans deliver damning verdict on VAR. 75% of 7,946 fans polled by the Football Supporters’ Association “didn’t support the use of VAR”. Too long, too forensic, too much of a joy killer, fans say. Findings shared with Premier League and PGMO. 92% of fans surveyed “agreed” that “VAR has removed the spontaneous joy of goal celebrations” (82% of them “strongly agreed”). 85% of match-going fans “strongly disagreed” with the notion that “VAR makes watching football more enjoyable”. And 83% of those watching on TV. 85% of match-going fans “strongly disagreed” that “VAR decisions are generally resolved in a reasonable amount of time”. Echoed by 83% of those watching on TV. Only 18% agreed that “VAR has improved the overall accuracy of refereeing decisions”. 72% are “concerned about the expansion of VAR beyond its current remit”. 79% “strongly disagreed” with the suggestion “that the match-going experience is better with VAR”. 67% “strongly agreed” that they preferred “watching games that are played without VAR to games with VAR”. 84% “strongly support” goal-line technology. 34% “strongly opposed” to the idea of a challenge system (two per game per team). “These findings back up the FSA's previous survey in 2021, where fans expressed misgivings about the introduction of VAR,” says Thomas Concannon, @WeAreTheFSAPremier League network manager. “The vast majority are reporting the same concerns five years on - the loss of spontaneity when celebrating goals, and an overall worsening of the match-going experience. We have shared the survey results with the Premier League and PGMO, and look forward to discussing its findings with them.” Fans surveyed of all PL clubs and all ages (Under-18 to 65+).

@BBCNews @JakeBenRichards I’ve spent the last year (at least) complaining about poor refereeing in the EFL. VAR was supposed to put a stop to that. But if it’s the same referees reviewing their colleagues’ mistakes, then there will be no improvement.
